Not only funny, he is smart

Kind, loyal and family glue

The first to cradle a broken heart

This wittiest boy I ever knew.

 

He lives in fear of boredom

Even through a bout of the flu

He can’t stand a life of ho-hum

This wittiest boy I ever knew.

 

At first he may seem a quiet mouse

But then laughter is anew

His comebacks are a light house

This wittiest boy I ever knew.

 

He dribbles on the ball court

He over-extends his curfew

Yet will still play in a snow fort

This wittiest boy I ever knew.

 

No more sleepovers and playground slides

As he plans his future through

But with him it’ll always be adventurous rides

This wittiest boy I ever know.

 

The house now feels empty

His classes are somewhere new

Off to find his own giggling sea

This wittiest boy I ever knew.
